K&R vs ANSI-c

I'm a bit concerned.  My machine's manufacturer is now defunct
(CounterPoint Computers).  As the world slowly moves to ANSI-c
what happens to those of us  with older machines that don't
have the ability or resources to have the new compiler ported to
our machines?  For now most designers using ANSI-c are covering
themselves with ifdef statements, but I don't see this continuing
forever.  Another problem is that any applications that I might
write on this machine won't be upward compatible thus lowering
their potential market value.  Does anyone else out there share
this concern?  What I hope to find is some sort of filter program
that will search, identify and convert K&R to ANSI-c and vice-versa.
Does such a thing exist today?  Is it Public Domain?  Where can
I get a copy?
